Tryouts Set
For Second
Theater Play
Tryouts for "The Man Who
Came To Dinner," second produc
tion of the University Theatre's
1947-48 season, will begin on
Tuesday, November 4, in room
201, Temple building, according
to Dallas S. Williams, Theatre di
rector. -
Any regularly enrolled student
in the university may try out for
the play. Tryout times are from 7
p. m. to 9 p. m. on Tuesday, No
vember 4; from 3 p. m. to 5 p. m.
and from 7 p. m. to 9 p. m. on
Wednesday, November 5; and
from 7 p. m. to 9 p. m. on Thurs
day, November 6.
' Large Cast
"A student seriously interested
in appearing in the show should
plan to attend at least two of the
tryout periods," indicated Mr.
Williams. "The Man Who Came
To Dinner" features an exception
ally large cast nine women and
27 men."
An example of American com
edy at its bawdy best, "The Man
Who Came To Dinner" reveals
playwrights George S. Kaufman
and Moss Hart in one of their
wittiest collaborations. The play
is a merciless caricature of the
late Alexander Woollcott his bad
manners, shameless egoism, boun
tiful mischief and widely assorted
friendships.
Woolley Makes Hit
, Monty Wooley, embellished with
a beard, acidulous wit and a
wheelchair, created thex role on
Broadway and later in the movies.
Delighted with the malicious
virtuisity of the Kaufman-Hart
comedy, Woollcott himself played
the role of the ill-mannered lit
erary critic when the stage pro
duction toured road engagements.

To The Editor:
Someone should do a little
screaming. The new system of
charging fees, which was recently
announced by the university, fs a
vile thing, and far from just. A
hike in the professors' pay checks
may be a fine thing, for though
some of them may not deserve it,
certainly most of them need it!
And if more money is needed, the
students may as well do their part,
but why not with a little more
justice in distributing the load?
If you have read the announce
ments, a few minutes with a pen
cil and paper will show that the
poor fish who has to earn a living
as he goes along is going to catch
it "in the heck" but hard! He is
the one who can manage only 12
or 13 hours with decent grades,
and therefore is penalized about
$30. (Meanwhile, those fortunate
people who picked well-heeled
parents, and can afford to carry a
full study load without working,
pay little more than before or
even save money.)
If you accept the veterans esti
mate of $80 per month living ex
penses, it is apparent that a 66
increase in tuition is going to ne
cessitate quite an income, if the
working student is to continue in
school. The question then arises
as to whether the new ruling isn't
designed to decrease enrollment,
as well as to provide additional
funds. Before deciding that this is
"as good a group as any" to elim
inate, I suggest that you attempt
to discover the number of Kegents
Scholars, graduates with distinc
tion, and PBK's who worked their
way through school. I warrant the
results would prove interesting.
If tuition can t be increased on
a credit-hour basis, it seems just
fair that only the extra should be
added to the registration fee, and
paid alike by plutocrat and under
dou. Me. I liked the "good old
days," when people believed in
equal opportunity, and a man
could work his way through col
lege paying no more per value re
ceived than the people with the
"long green" in their pockets.

Dear Informed One:
We square ones here on the
campus, after reading your cur
rent column in the "Rag," feel
that you are undertaking a task
which is obviously beyond your
capacity. You have apparently
purchased a copy of the trite
"guide for the peasant," Down
beat, borrowed some "hep-cat"
terminology, and consider yourself
a full-fledged, rootie-tootie, razz-a-ma-tazz,
jazz critic. You have
become the laughing stock of any
one who has read TWO copies of
Downbeat. As a connoisseur of
pazz music, you make an excellent
mid-wife. Anybody who has the
intestinal fortitude to utter the
stupid statement that Elman cuts
Shavers is a "cubical" with nine
corners. All that can be said of
your feeble project is ....
(HELP)!!!!

Announce New Classification
Of University Clerical Jobs
At an open meeting of all cleri
cal employees of the university
in Morrill Hall Wednesday after
noon, Dr. Carl Borgmann, dean of
faculties, explained the new job
classification system begun nearly
six months ago by Dr. Curtis M.
Elliott of bizad college. Dr. Elliott
and Professor R. N. Bourne were
present to assist in explaining the
system.
The"job study was undertaken
at the .request of Chancellor Gus
tavson, who deplored the unfair
nessof different pay scales for
similar jobs in the various de
partments of the university. Dr.
Borgmann told the employees that
the classification system provides
categories for various positions
which will be standard tnrougnoui
the university.
He emphasized that while each
employee has been placed into a
category corresponding to his pre
sent job, the final classification
will rpst with the suDervisor of
the department in which the em
ployee is workfng. He added that
it is quite possible that a few em
nlovees have been Dlaced into a
category lower than their qualifi
cations and duties merit, but that
final classification will resolve any
inequities.
Salary Increases
Under the system, approximate
ly two-thirds of the clerical em
ployees will be in line for salary
increases; the scales to be decided
upon by the Board of Regents,
which meets Saturday, Nov. 8. In
creases will be retroactive to Nov.
1.
Dr. Borgmann also said that
the administration strongly feels
the need for a system of merited
advancement whereby employees
with particular skills and abilities
may be promoted to better posi
tions. To this end, the adminis
tration is working on a plan to se
cure a personnel officer who will
set up and administer such a sys
tem. A round bf spirited applause for
the interest displayed by the ad
ministration in the clerical em
ployees greeted the remarks of a
woman employee , who said that
in the twenty years the she had
been working for . the university, v
thisvjs the first time that a meet
ing of this type had been called.
